I don’t care about the Rumble at all. I think the build has been lackluster at best. I am going to watch NFL football instead. Am I wrong?

First off, you can do what you want so no matter what, you aren’t wrong. I think even if the build to the Rumble had been great, it still would be a hard choice between watching that and watching Carolina vs. Arizona. I am with you, the build hasn’t been great so I completely understand why you are skipping the show. We will have full coverage of it here on the site tonight so just follow along with us while you watch the game.

I see reports now that Orlando is the frontrunner to host Wrestlemania 33 opposed to Minneapolis like I've been hoping for for YEARS! Why do you think Minnesota isn't well received to be a Mania host?

It’s cold? Seriously, as long as they have a domed stadium, I can see them getting a Mania if they keep trying for it. In a nutshell, WWE seeks out the best deal that hey can get for the show and whoever makes the best offer has the best shot at getting the event.

What do you think of AJ vs. Del Rio for the U.S. Title at WrestleMania? I think the title's prestige has died out a bit since Del Rio has had it. He's great in plenty of aspects but the U.S. title seems stagnant like it was before Cena made it relevant again. With so many fantasy match possibilities with AJ in WWE I would love to see him do similar to what Cena did but with him each match would be far more anticipated in my opinion. I feel like that's a perfect spot for him. Would it be too soon, should he play another role in WWE, or do you think that's a good spot for him?

It all depends on how each guy is booked. If they are booked strongly leading up to it, it could be great. But, that is a big if. I would rather see him get a push to the main title picture and see what happens there. The US Title is kind of scorched Earth at this point. If AJ beat Cena, it would be one thing. But given how ADR has been booked since he won, I think the affect would be more putting AJ into a lackluster spot rather than getting him over. To me, it makes a lot more sense to bring him in as a guy that could compete for the top prize. They desperately need talent at the top of the card.

Has it ever been truly established exactly (in storyline) WHY the McMahons don't want Roman Reigns to be WWE World Heavyweight champion?  For example, it was obvious that Vince didn't want Steve Austin as champion due to the swearing, no respect for authority, beer drinking and flipping the bird.  But I feel this is missing from the current desire to get the title away from Reigns.  Just as an additional point, unlike Austin, Reigns just seems to accept he's going to be screwed over and doesn't seem to want to do anything about it, not even get angry!

WWE do thorough explanations of storylines? That is a good one! They just don’t like him because he is not their guy and he doesn’t want to be on their side. That is a deeply fleshed out story for WWE.

Is anyone else bothered by the Wyatt Family flashing the Four Horseman sign after a match?

I can’t speak for everyone in the world so I can’t say for sure. Personally, it didn’t bother me but then again I didn’t really notice it either.
